Job Search

An opportunity is available for a Breast Radiology Consultant to join a progressive clinical team providing a comprehensive diagnostic and interventional breast imaging service. The successful candidate will contribute to high-quality, patient-centred care across symptomatic, screening and referral pathways, working collaboratively with radiographers, radiologists, surgeons, oncologists, pathologists and specialist nursing colleagues.

Key responsibilities will include reporting mammography, breast ultrasound and breast MRI, undertaking image-guided procedures such as core biopsy, vacuum-assisted biopsy and wire or seed localisation, and participating in multidisciplinary team meetings. You will support the assessment and management of patients with suspected or confirmed breast disease, ensuring reports are accurate, timely and clearly communicated to referring clinicians and patients where appropriate.

The postholder will contribute to service development, clinical audit, governance and quality improvement activities, helping to maintain high standards of safety and effectiveness. There may also be opportunities to support teaching, training and supervision for radiology trainees, radiographers and other healthcare professionals. Participation in relevant departmental meetings and the development of local protocols will be expected.

Applicants should hold full registration with the General Medical Council and be eligible for inclusion on the Specialist Register in Clinical Radiology, or possess equivalent recognised credentials. Subspecialty experience in breast imaging is essential, with demonstrable competence across mammography, ultrasound, MRI and interventional procedures. Experience within a multidisciplinary breast service and familiarity with national screening standards would be advantageous.

You will need excellent communication and organisational skills, sound clinical judgement and a commitment to compassionate, inclusive care. The ability to work effectively within a multidisciplinary team, manage competing priorities and contribute positively to a changing service is essential. Candidates should also demonstrate a commitment to continuing professional development and maintaining up-to-date knowledge of breast imaging practice.

This role offers the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to the delivery and continued improvement of specialist breast services while developing your clinical, educational and leadership interests.
